SHARK WEAK! A New Series at Fellowship Church “Enters the Water” this August, Along with a Very Special Guest.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Pastor Ed Young welcomes renowned surfer and shark attack survivor Bethany Hamilton—live at Fellowship Church—to share her gripping story of inspiration and hope.

Grapevine, TX, July 26, 2011-

Fellowship Church/Fellowship Church is known for kicking off the fall season with series that take people places they have never been. This fall is no different, as Ed Young literally takes the church into deep, shark-infested water.

Premiering in August, the new series “Shark Weak” is designed to help people overcome the things that too often keep them on the shores of life rather than entering the water. “Shark Weak” will help empower them to overcome that fear and discover life on the other side of it.

This series, which will include footage of Ed Young preaching from a boat in the ocean and scuba diving with sharks at the site of an ocean shipwreck, will also feature surfing phenomenon Bethany Hamilton live on stage.

Bethany is internationally recognized and widely known for her story of courage and overcoming adversity. In 2003, Bethany was attacked by a 14-foot tiger shark while surfing, losing her left arm as a result. Most recently portrayed in the docudrama “Soul Surfer,” Bethany’s life is a testament to the power God has to help people overcome adversity. Ed Young is planning on sharing that truth with Fellowship Church.

“Bethany’s story is powerful and inspiring. Millions of people around the world have read her book, seen her movie or watched her on television. They know what she’s been through. We’re thrilled to have her here to share her experience! Because the truth is that God has a story for all of us. And by hearing from Bethany live, I believe that people will understand and see the truth that God has great things in store for all of us, despite our fears. I can’t wait to get it started!” – Ed Young
